How do you get the tolex so clean?

I like your photos.  The first head was a bit of deja vu for me, I just worked on a peavey mixer amp xr-400, and the similarity of construction reminded  me of it, it was also about 1979 or so.  I also have a classic vt 212 combo from the same era.  I fixed it to sell, and it works fine, but is really filthy exterior.
